Top 10 build threads!

[nedceifus]

Sorry if this derailed the bromance thread. I should have searched "bromance" first, stupid me!

I like overlanding builds. @mosesburb, @Larry, @muddysub, @AgDieseler.

@Babaganoosh and @Phil513 for building sweet wheeling rigs.

@ktmoutfront for being generally awesome.
@Deuling for dune running.

@GWeakland620 for his newer SAS tow rig.

It's not a coincidence that all of these guys have GMOTM banners.


This is only 9 instead of 10, but it's enough to keep you reading for quite a while, particularly the overlanders.

List of threads instead of usernames. Oddly enough I didn't find a thread for @Larry's '78. Maybe that one was over on the other site?

This list will keep you busy for a while, @mosesburb and @Larry alone could compile a couple of books.

Thanks @campfire, I don't usually consider my stuff very notable.

As for trip reports @campfire has it down very well.

That CCLB has carved itself a niche around here, not so many converted camping tow rigs out there.

And as for trip reports, I linked to a pile of good ones, but did not put my stuff in the list. Have you read all of Mosesburb's thread? It's 58 pages detailing both a very thorough build and then several years' worth of overlanding around the country. If you have the time you won't be disappointed. Ditto for Larry's threads.

Thanks for the mention Campfire. Yeah, the K10 doesn’t really have a build thread as it has been an ongoing build project for 20 years although there are many small project threads here and there on CK5 and 67-72chevytrucks. The closest thing to a build thread is on Expedition Portal where I was active before I came back to CK5 but even that isn’t a complete build thread. Only updates to it from 2010 to current

My brother has a pretty cool build thread on rockwells:

https://ck5.com/forums/threads/a-low-slung-old-chevy-on-rockwells-it-can-be-done.321365/

And I like mine :

Hauler: https://ck5.com/forums/threads/1989-crew-cab-tow-rig-build.323756/

My brother and I hate the threads that have way too much chatter too...we just want to read the tech and learn something...oh and the pictures...we like the pretty pictures too, ahaha

 

[BlaZeus]

I think my build is kinda...erhm....unique?
I haven't been around very long as these other guys have and still have a lot to learn and accomplish, but I have met some people (not on this forum) that think BlaZeus is pretty cool

I've always enjoyed Larrys build threads. Martin's (82355) are always pretty entertaining.

Honestly any build with lots of pictures and attention to detail.
